Ratings and reviews

The recent e-paper update is a good example of an update making a product worse instead of better. Among the worst things, the previous day's edition "sticks" on my iPad; in other words, in the morning when opening the app, yesterday's edition appears. Before the update, I would simply tap the X at the top of the screen, X out the previous day's edition, and the current day's edition would appear. NOW, I have to delete the app, and start over! NEW navigating features are awful too!

I am very unhappy with this app. First, it gets stuck on a blank page. 2nd, it takes forever to download. 3rd after it dowloads, it either won't open or only opens once. As others have said, some stories open up, and others don't. I also find the new layout inconvenient. There are too many steps to open up a section.

this format is very hard to read on the phone. need a device like laptop or PC with a bug monitor.
